How to Make Beer And Cheese Potato Chowder Crock Pot

Dice 1 large onion, 2 stalks celery, and 1 large carrot. Mince 2 cloves garlic.
Peel and cube 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes.
In a 3-4 quart slow cooker, combine potatoes, onion, celery, carrot, garlic, and 1 teaspoon black pepper.
Gently stir to combine.
Pour in 4 cups beef broth and 1 cup beer (a dark beer like stout or porter works well).
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until potatoes are very tender.
About 10 minutes before serving, coarsely mash some of the potatoes using a potato masher or fork. Leave some chunks for texture.
Stir in 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese and ½ cup heavy whipping cream.
Stir until cheese is melted and the chowder is heated through.
(Optional) For extra richness, stir in 2 tablespoons of butter.
To make rye croutons:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Toss the bread cubes with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Ladle chowder into bowls and top with the crispy rye croutons.
